| Dells can now ship with Ubuntu
 Quote: |
Dell is shipping its XPS M1330 laptop with a DVD-playing version of Ubuntu 7.10 pre-installed in the States now, exactly as promised. Everybody else got this about a week ago, but we're not bitter: the $954 US starting price sure beats the 799 Euros those suckers over there have to drop.
| Seems like Ubuntu is getting more press than usual! This is the second mention of using Ubuntu I've seen in the day. Now I have never tried running Ubuntu, or any Linux system but I find that when I get myself another harddrive Im defiantly trying it out. Its good that you can get another OS for a PC from a manufacturer besides Windows, always love competition.
